After Zhu Youxiao's concubine was decided, the wedding date was also calculated by the Qintian Supervisor. The time to marry the queen Zhang Yan was set to be March of the second year of Tianqi, and the time to marry the noble concubine Ning Xi was in May. There was a one-month difference between the two. It is deliberately arranged by the school!
Originally, Zhang Yan and Ning Xi would have received strict court etiquette training during this period, but under Zhu Youxiao's instructions, both of them were accompanied by the nuns in the palace back to their respective homes to learn etiquette. Naturally, it becomes a lot easier!
In addition, this time for Zhu Youxiao's wedding, a total of 5,000 beautiful girls were recruited. However, Zhu Youxiao had already chosen his concubines and set a record for the fastest time after the selection. These beautiful girls could not be sent back to their hometowns. Got it!
So Zhu Youxiao found another way to keep all the five thousand beautiful ladies, and then ordered the original maids to leave the palace. In this way, those maids were exempted from the fate of the lonely old palace!
Of course, not all of the palace maids want to leave the palace. Some old palace maids who are already homeless are sent directly to the palace to take care of themselves. There are also some who are not very old and do not want to leave the palace. Promoted to female officer.
Those who are really willing to leave the palace are naturally the young palace ladies. These palace ladies are all under the age of twenty-four or five, and they see no way out in the palace, so they are willing to live outside the palace!
Of course, these palace maids are already old girls in terms of age. It is easy to find a well-matched family, but they are not willing to stay in the palace. If they choose to marry someone out of the palace, they can at least have a place to settle down!
But for those palace ladies who were willing to leave the palace, Zhu Youxiao didn't just send them away. Not only did he give the An family money, he also helped them become matchmakers.
After all, there are many bachelors in the Guards, and many palace maids who are a little older and not easy to marry, just take advantage of these big soldiers. Anyway, the salary of the Guards is definitely high enough, and marrying these people will not provide the minimum living security. questionable!
Just when the Ming Dynasty was preparing for Zhu Youxiao's wedding next year, a group of Mongolian cavalry arrived at the gate of Datong City. This group of cavalry only numbered 500, and the banner they carried was the banner of Lin Dan Khan's sweat tent!
If it were in the past, when seeing such Mongolian cavalry approaching, Datong City would definitely close the city gates and be on strict guard, but now no one cares about such Mongolian cavalry, so these people were not seen until they arrived at the gate of Datong City. The soldiers at the city gate stopped him!
The little flag guarding the city gate also had a very arrogant attitude. He stood directly in front of the city gate and shouted loudly: "Who are you? Why did you come here? Don't you know that Datong City is not for you to come to?" Of?"
Three questions in succession did not give the visitor any face. Although most of the Mongolian cavalry did not understand Chinese, looking at the attitude of the little flag, it was clear that he did not say anything good. This made these arrogant Mongolian cavalry one after another. An angry look on his face!
But these Mongolian cavalry were obviously not here to cause trouble, so although they were angry, no one acted rashly. Instead, a gorgeously dressed, bearded Mongolian rode out of the team!
The bearded Mongolian looked at the small flag in front of him and said in blunt Chinese: "We are the envoys of Lin Dan Khan. We are going to see His Majesty the Ming Emperor. You should go and report to Datong officials to come out to greet you. If it delays the matter, your I¡¯m afraid I can¡¯t save my head!¡±
Although the little flag was arrogant, it didn't understand the priorities. After listening to the bearded Mongolian, he thought for a moment and said: "You guys just go to the city gate and wait. Don't delay others from entering the city. I will send someone right away." This is reported to Shangguan, but I don¡¯t know how Shangguan will arrange it!¡±
When the bearded Mongolian heard this, he immediately became angry. He was about to scold the little flag, but there was a light cough from the cavalry team behind him. The bearded Mongolian immediately swallowed back what he was about to say!
Then the bearded Mongolian said angrily: "Then hurry up, don't delay the important matter!"
With that said, he waved his hand, and the five hundred cavalrymen went down the official road and waited at the city gate.
And the small flag guarding the city gate sent someone to report to the superior, and then he did whatever he was supposed to do, as if the five hundred Mongolian cavalry didn't exist!
When the bearded Mongolian saw this scene, his face became even more angry, and he whispered to an old man wearing a hood and red lama monk's clothes: "Master, these enlightened people don't take us seriously! "
"Yes!" the old lama in red said helplessly: "In the past, when the grassland warriors appeared in the sight of these Han people, they hid like frightened rabbits, but now they don't pay attention to the warriors at all. It¡¯s in!¡±
The bearded Mongolian said bitterly: "The Great Khan should send troops to let these Han people know that they are powerful, but why do you have to let the master go to see thatThe little Han emperor? "
"Alas!" The old lama sighed and said: "Since last year, the Han people have turned from lambs to hungry wolves. They not only plundered many tribes on the grassland, but even the Jurchen tribes were not spared. If the Great Khan now If you send troops, not only will you get little benefit, but you may also lose troops and generals. Moreover, the Han people opened a mutual market, which benefited many tribes. Those short-sighted guys were afraid that the Ming Dynasty would close the mutual trade, so they repeatedly ignored the issue of sending troops. Shifting the blame, the Great Khan had no choice but to send me to see the little emperor of the Han people. After all, they promised to give the Great Khan four thousand taels of silver every year, but they haven¡¯t given it to him last year and this year!¡±
The bearded Mongolian was stunned and asked: "Will they still give us money?"
The old lama shook his head slightly and said: "With the current strength of the Han people, it is certainly impossible for them to give the Great Khan any more money, so we went to see the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty this time, mainly to see how strong the Ming Dynasty is, and His Majesty the Emperor What on earth do you want to do!"
Just as he was talking, a group of twenty cavalrymen came out from Datong City, but among the cavalry there was a civil servant. This man was wearing a crimson official robe, but his riding skills were pretty good. At least the cavalrymen did not have to slow down to accommodate him. !
This group of Ming cavalry came out of the city gate and stopped directly opposite the Mongolian cavalry. The official shouted loudly: "I am the governor of Datong Mansion, Gao Di. Is that the envoy of Lin Dan Khan?"
The full name of "Governor of Datong" was originally "Governor of Datong", who was responsible for the local military affairs. However, since Zhu Youxiao completely separated the civil and military affairs, although Datong still has the official position of governor, the governor of Datong can no longer interfere with military affairs and is only responsible for local civil affairs!
Today, Lin Dan Khan¡¯s envoy came. Originally, the soldiers guarding the city gate reported to the General Military Mansion, but matters involving envoys were the responsibility of the Ministry of Rites, so Cao Wenzhao directly sent someone to notify Gao Di, the governor of Datong!
Gao Di also felt that welcoming envoys should be a matter for civilian officials, so he borrowed twenty cavalry from Cao Wenzhao to serve as a front and came to greet Lin Dan Khan's envoys!
When the bearded Mongolian saw the people coming, he rode out again and said loudly: "I am Buri Gude, a member of the Ten Thousand Households under Lin Dan Khan. I have been ordered by my Great Khan to see His Majesty the Ming Emperor. I also ask Governor Gao to send Someone will escort me to the capital of the Ming Dynasty!"
Gao Di was stunned when he heard this, and then he remembered something. Although entertaining envoys was a matter for civilian officials, escorting envoys was a matter for military generals. He could ask Cao Wenzhao to borrow 20 cavalry to cover his appearance based on his face, but he didn't We can't order Cao Wenzhao to send people to escort these envoys to the capital!
On the other hand, Cao Wenzhao, the commander-in-chief of Datong, cannot privately send troops to escort envoys to Beijing. Even Xiong Tingbi, the nine-border admiral, does not have the right to interfere in civil affairs!
So this matter, which seemed not a big deal in the past, now has to be reported to the court, waiting for the court to decide how to deal with it!
Thinking of this section, Gaudi said: "Forgive me, your envoy. Now that we have a civil and military system in the Ming Dynasty, I have no right to send troops to escort your envoy to the capital. Therefore, I have to ask your envoy to stay in Datong first and wait until I report to the court." Let¡¯s talk again!¡± (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
